Light above, fall moon. /

Light below, waking street light. /

Sky and Earth greet night.

Brooding

A face in the clouds /

reclining in evening sun /

brooding toward the night.

Yearning

Earth’s Moon hanging high /

we, in yearning, try.

Haiku and photo: “Evening sun”

Evening sun

Descending daylight. /

Dressed in gray, red, and orange, /

Homes retire to night.

Haiku and illustration: “Dark joy”

Dark Joy

My joy is dark /

With wings embracing the night /

Bounded by duty.

Possum love

The night was fulsome. /

The opossum was hungry. /

Bird seed made a feast.

Haiku and photo: “Puddles and promises”

Puddles and promises

Rain strayed through the night. /

Left skies gray and bruised with cold. /

Uncollected tears.

Haiku and photo: “Night Visitor”

Night visitor

Ancient face abounds;

Deep into the night it shines.

See in darkness home.

“Branching” haiku

Branching

The full moon beyond /

Silhouette of winter trees /

Near to quiet Earth.

Monday morning writing joke: “Writer at night”

There once was a writer at night

Who wrote all the way to daylight.

His stories were grand

About a sun-drenched land

But his descriptions were never quite right.
